JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE is definitely a man of his word, because the “In Time” star fulfilled his promise to attend the much-publicized Marine Corps Ball with the female marine who asked him out via YouTube four months ago.
As previously reported by celebrity news, Justin was asked out by Corporal Kelsey De Santis through a self-made YouTube video back in July, which was one of the first of a string of videos made by marines for the sole purpose of asking out various celebs, such as Mila Kunis, Miley Cyrus, and Scarlett Johansson.
Justin, gentleman that he is, accepted. He replied:
“I’ll tell you what, I accept. But, not because she shouted out one of my songs, which I do love when they do that because I’m shameless, and not because she had all those beefcake military guys behind her to try to intimidate me. I don’t get asked out. Ever. So, I was very flattered by that, and I hear that she’s trained in martial arts, so I’m hoping we can tussle at some point. But, yeah, if my schedule works out to do it, I’d love to do it. It’s an honor.”
Fortunately, Justin’s tight schedule allowed him to not only keep his word, but also to “serve” his country in his own way. Before attending the party, the singer-turned-actor tweeted:
“Thank you to the men and women who serve our country and provide us with our freedom. Please join me in honoring our Veterans today.”
We don’t know about you, but this definitely raises him in our estimation. After all, with Justin’s busy Hollywood life, he could have simply blown off the “date” by using his hectic schedule—he is still promoting “In Time,” his latest movie—to get him out of it.
But no… Justin kept his word.
Pretty stand up guy, don’t you think?

Did he have a choice because if he didn’t the court of public opinion would have left a black mark on his ‘good guy’ record and then downhill in popularity.
